Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Language Models

Creating Effective Prompts

The information, sentences, or questions that you enter into a Gen AI tool are called prompts and have a huge influence on the output and the results you receive. After you enter a prompt, the AI model analyzes your input and generates a response based on the patterns it has learned through its training. More descriptive prompts can improve the quality of the outputs.

If you're unhappy with the results from your search, try rewording, explaining further, or thinking about circumstances and audience. Be specific and let it know exactly what information you're seeking, being vague or overly general will result in a vague or overly general answer.
